This is how Jacob Frey's campaign manager is responding to GOTV texts from other candidates. Astoundingly unprofessional.

Hell of a game! Hell of a series! Hell of a sport!

JB's goons threatening a pastor again.

Jonathan Greenblatt tweeting his support for Kevin Roberts

Jonathan Greenblatt doing clean-up for Kevin Roberts at the Heritage Foundation is the same as Kevin Roberts doing clean-up for Tucker Carlson is the same as Tucker Carlson doing clean-up for Nick Fuentes

Trump is currently threatening to invade Nigeria for persecution of Christians while his brownshirts are denying the right to practice Christianity to his prisoners

Studied abroad there like 15 years ago. It was a wild and fun and eye-opening experience! But yeah Spur was definitely a...memorable... establishment.

Enjoy Windhoek!

The Heritage Foundation, which staffs the current presidential administration and wrote its agenda, spent this past week defending Tucker Carlson’s decision to mainstream actual Nazis.

Also this week, a thousand rabbis told me Zohran Mamdani is the greatest threat to my safety as an American Jew.

So not only does the massive transit package passed last night fill the funding gap, it *boosts* ops funding by roughly the size of the gap, eliminates parking minimums within a half mile of rail stations, and gives the new regional transit board sweeping powers to do public development

Not a word from the ADL’s Jonathan Greenblatt on Tucker hosting Fuentes. Amazing.

I just checked his Twitter feed and plenty on Mamdani and even Norway (!) but not a word about a top conservative podcaster hosting an infamous Holocaust denier.

Greenblatt is beyond parody at this point.

People really just be admitting shit!

Morality, decency, justice, and fairness just never enter these discussions. Nor does the possibility that effective leadership and advocacy can move the needle.

The year I was born, public approval of interracial marriage was 30 percent. Death penalty support has dropped 30 percent since 2000.

ADL removes ‘Protect Civil Rights’ from website as it narrows its mission amid right-wing attacks The removal took place after FBI Director Kash Patel said he would cut ties with the ADL, though it is unclear if that has happened.

there are two schools of thought on protecting Jewish safety in America: we either fight for a pluralistic democracy where we are safe because minority rights are protected or we seek junior partner status in the MAGA white nationalist alliance

the ADL has chosen a side

Shame on @schumer.senate.gov @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social @kirstengillibrand.bsky.social and the rest of them for not decisively ending this racist, junior varsity nepo baby when he lost the primary

They're literally telling us they're not a civil rights organization. Let's see if legacy Jewish orgs and the press who treat them as the only voice on antisemitism will listen.

Love to be in the Days Where You Have to Text Multiple People on the Same Day to Check in about Their Terrifying Encounters with State Violence and Repression

BREAKING: Cuomo called a man “paisan” despite their families originating in two entirely different villages on opposite ends of Campania

That's the difference in the superstars right there: Vladdy is good enough to hit a HR off Shohei, but Shohei could never manage to hit a HR off Vladdy.

My email drafts folder is just a slowly accumulating, increasingly unhinged collection of unsent responses to Jewish left listserv drama

I like how Zohran Mamdani scandals are like "He called his old cousin his aunt one time" and Andrew Cuomo scandals are like "He sexually assaulted 13 women."

The Zohran "aunt" thing is the funniest hatchetjob of all time. There was a prominent person in my childhood named Uncle Bonehead who was just a friend of my uncle. To this day I have no idea what his actual name was. This nomenclature is not unusual in my culture (recovered alcoholic Masshole).

i cannot believe that “mamdani calls a close adult relative an ‘aunt’ even if they are not literally their parent’s sister” is what counts as a “scandal” these days

That is..uh...a very particular look

The Blue Jays failed to consider that I had an 8:30 meeting today when they decided to intentionally walk Shohei Ohtani four times in extra innings last night.

Baseball!

This Shohei Ohtani character sure seems good at baseball

An absolutely insane frame given that the other candidate is the son of a former governor of the state

Whenever people complain about the number of folks relying on food stamps, it is worth reminding them that SNAP is, by too large of a degree, a subsidy for corporations that refuse to pay a living wage and their political allies who reject public policy prescriptions to reduce income inequality.

They can carry this
